Specifications

write the new value in the PWE block and send from the
master to the follower.
When a follower responds to a parameter request (read
command), the present parameter value in the PWE block
is transferred and returned to the master. If a parameter
contains several data options, e.g. 0-01 Language, select
the data value by entering the value in the PWE block.
Serial communication is only capable of reading
parameters containing data type 9 (text string).
15-40 FC Type to 15-53 Power Card Serial Number contain
data type 9.
For example, read the unit size and mains voltage range in
15-40 FC Type. When a text string is transferred (read), the
length of the telegram is variable, and the texts are of
different lengths. The telegram length is defined in the
second byte of the telegram (LGE). When using text
transfer, the index character indicates whether it is a read
or a write command.
To read a text via the PWE block, set the parameter
command (AK) to ’F’ Hex. The index character high-byte
must be “4”.

Conversion
The various attributes of each parameter are displayed in
the chapter Parameter Lists in the Programming Guide.
Parameter values are transferred as whole numbers only.
Conversion factors are therefore used to transfer decimals.
4-12 Motor Speed Low Limit [Hz] has a conversion factor of
0.1.
To preset the minimum frequency to 10 Hz, transfer the
value 100. A conversion factor of 0.1 means that the value
transferred is multiplied by 0.1. The value 100 is thus
perceived as 10.0.

Examples
7.5.1 Writing a Parameter Value
Change 4-14 Motor Speed High Limit [Hz] to 100 Hz.
Write the data in EEPROM.
PKE=E19E Hex - Write single word in 4-14 Motor Speed High
Limit [Hz]:
IND=0000 Hex
PWEHIGH=0000 Hex
PWELOW=03E8 Hex
Data value 1000, corresponding to 100 Hz, see
7.4.12 Conversion.
The telegram looks like this:
